Personal Favourite in this work: Gorou, Wriothesley, Lyney
Aether
You can't read his expression. It's usually easy to read Aether, but this time it's really difficult to guess how he feels.
"...I of all people should know how much it hurts when you're separated from family...and yet..."
there is a huge pause here, he struggles to keep his composure.
"And yet I can't bring myself to be happy for you, is that selfish of me, Y/N?"
Voice cracks. Eyes start to glisten with unshed tears.
Albedo
"Oh,"
He knew the time would come eventually but why was it such a shock to him all the same?
"...Show me, I'll make sure to create a bridge between your realm and mine..."
You ask if he can actually do that.
"...Not yet. But if it erases this goodbye...then I'll make it happen,"
Alhaitham
Was, as usual, reading a book when you told him.
"How? Are you sure this isn't one of those scams that you fall for too easily?"
You say no. You explain to him and eventually show him the portal.
He silently stares at it.
You move closer to the portal just to get a better look at it but he stops you by the wrist.
"You're not going in there by yourself. You don't know where it REALLY leads to, do you?"
Admittedly, you aren't 100% sure.
"Come on then," drags you by the wrist towards the portal. You're shocked and ask him what if he's unable to go back.
"...If you were able to arrive in this world, then logically there should be a way for me to return back... Either way it's not smart to let you go alone,"
Ayato
Smiles at you. "I see,"
"...I have no right to ask you to stay." moves closer to you, hand raises to touch your cheek gently. "...but in the time you've spent here by my side, I hope you know that this will always be your home too,"
Does not and will not stop you, even if it hurts him.
Baizhu
"Interesting,"
Doesn't seem fazed at all.
"You've told me quite a lot about the medical technology in your world, Y/N, I'm quite interested to see it,"
He seems to be saying that he'll go with you. You explain that you're not sure if he can come back to Teyvat.
"Oh," seems to finally connect the dots. "Oh, well that would be a problem, wouldn't it?" puts a hand to his chin, deep in thought.
"Ah, no matter, let's see where it leads me and we'll worry about the details later,"
Bennett
"S-So... You're leaving?"
Already looks like he's about to cry. You explain that you feel really conflicted.
Frowns, looks at the ground, refusing to look you in the eye.
"I-It's okay... You should go, really! You must miss your family and--"
can't even finish his sentence and starts crying.
"N-No! I'll be okay, I'm just really sad right now, but--" hiccups "but I'll be okay. Knowing that I met you and got to spend all that time with you... I'll be okay,"
Dainsleif
Knows what it means. Is deep in thought for quite some time before approaching you about it.
"...I sometimes wonder if there really is anything left for me in this world. What fuels me? Anger? Revenge? A search for answers? Yes... Perhaps I might be interested in following you to your world, partly just to see if this curse might be lifted from me if I enter a different realm but also partly because..."
he glances at you, then stares back out into the distance.
"...Partly because I've found the calm that I lost 500 years ago... and it's right here next to you,"
Diluc
"Congratulations," is his first word.
But it takes him a moment to think about what to say next.
"...I won't hold you back from what makes you happy Y/N. Family is... something to cherish,"
Will walk you to the portal but stop you just before entering it.
"If the portal closes..." he doesn't seem to know what to do nor say next.
You touch his hand and tell him you'll try and find a way back to visit. Grasps your hand back, the pained expression on his face finally shows up.
"...Then I'll find a way back to you too, I'll see you soon,"
Gaming
"When my dad and I used to fight, even though we were in the same town... I already felt so alone. I felt like he was so far away from me and didn't understand me, even though he was right there. I can't imagine how it might feel for you, actually being far away from them,"
You say that it does feel lonely sometimes but that he has made your time here so much more better. His eyes light up despite his sadness.
"I'm really happy to hear that!"
Is very much conflicted.
"...But it's okay if I'm sad too, right? It feels like a piece of me is getting ripped away Y/N,"
Gorou
"Back home, huh,"
he sighs in defeat and doesn't hide his disappointment.
"That's good. I'm happy for you, but..."
takes a deep breath in and sighs it out just as slow.
"...It just... feels like I'm waking up from a long, long dream," his eyes open to look at the sky. "...and now I don't know how to live in reality anymore,"
Ifa
Cacucu speaks first "Seriously, bro?"
"You're leaving? Just like that?"
He asked, astonished. You tell him it's really hard for you as well but you haven't seen your family in years.
"...Y-Yeah, you're right. Forget what I said," smiles through the hurt and puts on a brave front. "I'll take you to the portal then,"
but once you're there he repeatedly stalls. Asks if you want to play with that saurian over there, or pick some flowers for your family, or look at the stars over the usual hill one more time.
"...I can't do it," he finally says. "I can't pretend I'm okay with this. I'm not gunna stop you Y/N, but... just know that Cacucu and I will always wait for you to come back,"
Itto
"That's awesome! You get to see your family and friends again!"
It doesn't completely register in his mind that you might not come back at all.
"Whaddyou mean? Like, it only goes there but you can't come back here...? Oh,"
Processes it quite slowly.
"Well, then, guess we gotta do more things together before you go! Let's go to that festival next week! Oh! We should get a photo together! I heard there's also a special show next spring--"
Seems to digest it bit by bit.
"...Right, you won't be here next spring, I guess..."
Kaeya
"I see,"
Kaeya states, smiling a little.
"I suppose it was just about time. You've stuck with me, what? Three years now?"
A silence fills the air as he realizes it's actually been three years.
"...Three years. That's actually a long time. It's a little unfair then isn't it? You're leaving and you have no idea whatsoever how long you're gunna leave me for,"
tilts your chin up to face him and whispers to you.
"Leave me something of yours, something to tell me that this wasn't all a dream. That these three years meant something to you too,"
Kazuha
"Hm..."
He sighs, solemn. But a faint smile is on his lips.
"Home is a great place, Y/N. We only appreciate it that much more when it's gone,"
Has a very genuine smile on his face.
"I suppose... Letting go is also a form of love, right?"
Kinich
"The world is a really big place,"
he says, almost without thinking.
"So I doubt it's a coincidence that our paths crossed. Though it was strange at first, I have to admit I've gotten used to you now,"
he stares off into the distance, almost as if asking the universe,
"...Am I just supposed to accept that our paths will now diverge?"
Lyney
Deflects the attention away from him. "...Lynette and Freminet aren't gunna take this well..."
You ask how HE feels about it. He doesn't answer immediately.
"I... think you know how I feel, Y/N,"
his hands start to wave and maneuver into a magic trick.
"Three years ago, I wasn't expecting you to come knocking at The House of the Hearth,"
he snaps his fingers.
"Neither did Lynette nor Freminet... But, what a joy it was to stay in your company,"
his hand does a little shake and a Rainbow Rose appears in it, he hands it over to you.
"It wouldn't be fair for us to deprive others of the joy you bring,"
Neuvillette
Makes sure that it is indeed a true way for you to get home before saying anything about it.
"I'm aware that the portal may close as soon as you walk through it,"
he says, levelling his gaze towards you.
"Though there is sorrow... there was also much pleasure in the opportunity to know you,"
the sky seems to darken and you hear a far off rumble.
"I would not ask you to choose between me and your family Y/N, but I hope you know--"
doesn't finish his sentence and droplets start to slowly fall from the sky, hitting yours and his face.
Ororon
"Oh! That's perfect, I was just thinking that my radishes were about to go bad. Maybe you can take some home?"
you explain that you might not come back and might not see him ever again.
Thinks for a second.
"...I'll just visit you in your dreams! The Night Kingdom's really in tune to people's dreams, you know?"
You say that it might not work in your world. He waves you off nonchalantly.
"Of course it will, The Night Kingdom reaches everywhere. I'll see you tonight then, let's make it a picnic, sweet dreams!"
asks Citlali to make sure he can still visit you in your dreams.
Scaramouche
"...The hell?"
Is clearly aggravated.
"After three whole years of you tailing me like a puppy dog, a solution pops out of nowhere? Sounds like bullshit to me,"
Is sceptical but asks you to lead him to the portal.
"Alright, point it out,"
Attempts to destroy the said portal.
Tartaglia
Somewhat contemplating on just keeping you for himself by making you think that the portal disappeared
"Stay,"
he knows what he's asking of you. Knows that it's selfish. So he doesn't meet your eyes.
"Can't you?"
back hugs you and buries his head into your neck.
"...Then, just for a few more days, can it just be you and me?"
Tighnari
"Interesting!"
Sees it as a studying opportunity.
"Why of all times would it open up now? Perhaps we can take a look together,"
sees it and does seem curious by the portal, but does not hesitate to send you home.
"It's only right for me to be the one to escort you back, after all, I'm the one who found you that day three years ago in the forest too,"
He doesn't seem to be too sad and you ask if he's okay.
"...For the most part, yes. I'm confident we can find a way back between our worlds,"
Wriothesley
"Here I thought you were gunna stay here forever, it's been nice to have an extra set of hands helping me out,"
seemed happy at first but his mood dwindles the more he thinks about it.
"Can you blame me for being upset? Who's going to make me my morning tea now?"
You playfully ask if that's the only thing he's worried about.
"Course not," he stays silent for a bit.
"It's the emptiness you'll leave. How quiet it's going to be, and how I know I'll keep seeing you in the littlest of things,"
Xiao
"...So be it, are you getting ready to go back?"
you say yes but you say that you do it with a heavy heart. He doesn't say anything.
He makes up some type of excuse and lets you know that he can't bring you to the portal...but also says that if you really need him, you can call his name.
In reality he had nothing to do, he just didn't know how to say goodbye.
You did call his name and he appears in front of you, black smoke dissipating.
"...Until our paths meet again Y/N. Even across worlds, I'll be listening for my name on your lips... Maybe if I listen hard enough, it'll bring me to you again,"
